Just a list of the most adorable first Mother’s Day gifts ever

Their first Mother’s Day should be one to remember. Motherhood is a full-time job, after all, and the first few months of it are especially exhausting. While you might not be able to gift a good night’s kip, you can mark the occasion with one of these first Mother’s Day gifts – and help her pamper, reflect or get comfy instead.

Of course, mums should be celebrated year-round, but on every other day of the year, she’s likely far too busy worrying about being the best mother she can be. Mother’s Day is the perfect excuse to show say “I Love You” and remind her that she’s doing an absolutely stellar job. Whether you’re shopping for your wife, girlfriend or bestie, all mums celebrating Mother’s Day for the first time deserve something a little extra special.

As we see it, there are two routes you can go down: the practical or the sentimental. Practical 1st Mother’s Day gift ideas include buys like massagers for their poorly-rested shoulders, comfy yoga pants, self-care gift sets, breast pumps and The White Company dressing gowns they can wear 7 days a week. But if you’d rather go *soppy* – and we wouldn’t blame you, ‘cos chances are she’s feeling hella’ sentimental – a framed baby handprint, personalised heart necklace, new baby memory book, first year gift box or photo frame filled with her first ever new mom snap are guaranteed to be adored. The choice is yours.

Make the most of Mother’s Day with our full edit of gifts for mums, Mother-in-Law gifts and gorgeous gifts for Grandmas. And if you can’t be with them on the day, you can still treat them from afar with a delivery of letterbox flowers from a flower delivery service or a gift hamper direct through their door.

Ahead, the best first Mother’s Day presents to say “Happy First Mother’s Day” to you.
